In Memory of Mickey Rooney
Even with all the plaudits and platitudes, not enough was written upon the passing of Mickey Rooney. I don't know, actually, if there could ever be enough.
Lord Laurence Olivier once called Mickey Rooney "the greatest actor of them all," and Marlon Brando said he was "the best actor in films." [Read on here…]

Mr. Stephen Vokshori graduated Magna Cum Laude from USC's Marshall School of Business and elected to attend the UCLA School of Law for his Juris Doctor. While in UCLA's Business Law and Policy Program, he exhibited academic excellence in Real Estate, Corporate, and Finance law, and became a recipient of the Stephen E. Claman Scholarship.
Mr. Vokshori's work experience has included being managing partner at Taylor & Vokshori, a prominent real estate law firm, in-house legal counsel for a sizeable commercial and residential real estate company, litigation consultant with Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, and litigation associate at Demler Armstrong & Rowland.
As Managing Attorney of Vokshori Law Group, Mr. Vokshori utilizes his unique background in law, accounting, finance, and business when encountering complex real estate transactions, bankruptcy litigation, or business planning in anticipating and formulating solutions for his clients. He brings a strategic perspective to his work that enables clients to understand the issues they face in new ways. All the while, Mr. Vokshori understands that clients want to be kept apprised of their case and he makes time to personally meet with them and provide frequent status reports.
Mr. Vokshori represents clients in all facets of bankruptcy proceedings and litigation, as well as insolvency issues in business transactions, and he represents debtors and secured lenders in their in- and out-of-court restructurings. He also represents distressed homeowners who have been victimized by the proliferation of sub-prime and predatory lending as well as those who have witnessed double-digit percentage declines in property values which has stripped the equity out of their homes.
Mr. Vokshori regularly advises business owners and entrepreneurs in all of their business transactions including matters relating to business planning and growth, and provides advice and legal services at all stages including startup, business expansion, transition planning and execution. He has wide-ranging experience in all aspects of commercial and residential real estate. He is also experienced in estate planning and trust administration, including business succession planning for family and other closely held enterprises.
Mr. Vokshori understands the importance of community service and regularly devotes significant time to delivering needed pro bono legal assistance. Throughout his legal career, he has volunteered his services to individuals fighting against corporate and state powers. Volunteering with Public Counsel's general relief advocacy program, Mr. Vokshori argued to protect the rights of people in the welfare system that were homeless or at risk of becoming so. Mr. Vokshori also provided free legal assistance to UCLA students through UCLA's Student Legal Services program, counseling students on a wide variety of legal issues.
Currently, Mr. Vokshori spends his free time assisting low-income tenants fight against illegal evictions and unlawful detainer actions – a troubling corollary of the subprime mortgage foreclosure crisis. He also dedicates time to volunteer at Public Counsel's Consumer Law and Debtor Assistance Projects in providing advice and counsel to debtors that are filing for bankruptcy without an attorney.

I am picky with taquerias b/c I am from California. I was not impressed. I have been here twice and both times I ordered a burrito. The first time my chicken burrito was decent. The second time I ordered a carnitas burrito - it was disgusting, filled with huge pieces of fat, no salsa thus dry, and $9 (a lot for a burrito). Atmosphere is nice, menu looks good, maybe order tacos instead. Go to Las Cazuelas instead.

Emanuele Repetti
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Emanuele Repetti (1776-1852) was an Italian historian and naturalist who wrote extensively on the history of Tuscany. He was born in Carrara.[1]
He contributed to the Antologia of Vieusseux and the Atti of the Accademia dei Georgofili, of which he was secretary. From 1833 to 1846, he published the Dizionario geografico, fisico e storico della Toscana, which offers an account of the natural and civic history of municipalities in Tuscany. His work was primarily cultural, historical, linguistic and archaeological in nature.

The last time the Pittsburgh Pirates played in a winner-take-all game in a playoff series, they lost Game 7 of the 1992 NLCS when Atlanta rallied from a 2-0 deficit in the bottom of the ninth inning. The Braves memorably won on Sid Bream's slide into home, just beating the tag of Pirates catcher Mike LaValliere in one of the great moments in playoff history. The Pirates are back in the postseason for the first time since then and will visit St. Louis on Wednesday in Game 5 of the NLDS. The Cards will open as -145 favorites at Bovada with Live Betting. St. Louis forced a deciding Game 5 with a 2-1 win in Pittsburgh on Monday. Rookie Michael Wacha was brilliant, taking a no-hitter into the eighth inning. Pedro Alvarez homered off Wacha with one out in the inning for the Pirates' only hit. Matt Holliday's two-run homer in the sixth inning accounted for the Cardinals' runs. The vast majority of the Cardinals players are very familiar with win-or-go-home games, as St. Louis is 7-1 the past three years when facing playoff elimination. Pittsburgh has only a wild-card win over Cincinnati for experience. The Pirates are making a pitching change for Wednesday. It would normally be A.J. Burnett's turn in the rotation, but he was shelled in Game 1. Burnett allowed seven runs on six hits while walking four and getting knocked out in the third inning. St. Louis won that game 9-1. Carlos Beltran's three-run homer in the third was all the Cards needed. Beltran also homered in Game 3, his 16th career postseason dinger. That's No. 8 all-time and second among National Leaguers behind Albert Pujols (18). Pittsburgh instead will start rookie right-hander Gerrit Cole. The 2011 No. 1 overall draft pick was 10-7 with a 3.22 ERA during the regular season. Cole started Game 2 against the Cardinals and held them to a run on two hits in six innings of a 7-1 victory. He hasn't allowed more than two earned runs in an outing since August 29, which is the last time Pittsburgh lost one of his starts. Cole has faced St. Louis only that one time. Beltran and Yadier Molina had the only two hits off Cole, with Molina homering. Cole was 4-2 with a 2.38 ERA in seven road starts during the regular season. St. Louis won a franchise-record 54 games at home in the regular season and will start ace Adam Wainwright on Wednesday. The right-hander was 19-9 with a 2.94 ERA, tying for the NL lead in wins and tops in innings pitched and complete games. Wainwright was dominant in Game 1, holding the Pirates to a run and three hits while striking out nine over seven innings. In 14 career postseason games, he is 3-0 with a 2.27 ERA. Wainwright's career postseason strikeout ratio is 11.57 per nine innings, the fourth best in history among pitchers with at least 30 postseason innings. He and Bob Gibson are the only Cardinals to have multiple postseason starts with at least nine strikeouts. Pittsburgh star Andrew McCutchen has had success against Wainwright this year, going 4-for-10 with a home run and three RBIs. Alvarez is 2-for-11 with a home run.

I'm using the code given in this article http://www.alistapart.com/d/footers/ Using javascript and css to position my footer. (More specifically example 4 http://www.alistapart.com/d/footers/footer_dom1.html)
Here is my page: http://stevenrios.com/formit/site/footertest.htm
All css is within the html doc. Before I had the footer div within the content div but i changed that and it is doing the same thing.
The problem is the footer won't position itself when the window loads, when I resize the window it does, yet goes too far beyond the browswer window. I could live with the resize issue, i just need it to do the same thing when the page loads.
It is doing the same thing in every browser I've tried: Windows IE, Windows Firefox, Mac IE, Safari and Mac Firefox.
Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help.

I'm pretty sure 'skips' are a British thing, so let me explain what happens if you hire a skip over here: You rent a trash dumpster and then, mysteriously, overnight it becomes filled with everyone else's junk, often with really random things like old mannequins. You then have to pay for another trash dumpster that actually gets rid of your rubbish. Oh the irony. It's a whole ethical minefield like 'borrowing' your neighbors WiFi.
Anyway, this series of photographs really amuses me. You never get to use a skip for what you want, so why not think of other uses?
This creative was done by Goldsmiths University graduate Oliver Bishop-Young who presented two projects about skips at New Designers in London. The first is a proposal for a website where people upload information about the contents of skips so others can salvage items they need from them. The second is turning skips into public spaces, and it rules.
"My work focuses on skips and looks at three main areas: exchange of waste materials, re-use of waste and making use of wasted spaces. SkipWaste.org.uk is a site that documents the contents and locations of skips, allowing the exchange of materials before they go to landfill," the uber talented Oliver says of his work.

This volume presents the structure and definitions of all groups in the International Standard Classification of Occupations 2008 (ISCO–08) and their correspondence with ISCO–88.
ISCO–08 is a four-level hierarchically structured classification that covers all jobs in the world. Developed with the benefit of accumulated national and international experience as well as the help of experts from many countries and agencies, ISCO–08 is fully supported by the international community as an accepted standard for international labor statistics.
The classification of occupations is divided into two volumes: Volume I presents the structure and definitions of all groups in ISCO–08 and their correspondence with ISCO–88, which it supersedes, while Volume II will provide an updated and expanded index of occupational titles and associated ISCO–08 and ISCO–88 codes.

Front Driver Side Turn Signal Issue
I've seen a lot of similar turn signal issues on here, but none exactly match mine. I have a 1986 528e with 78k. When I have my parking lights on my front driver parking light seems brighter than the right and the turn signal does not work in the front, only the rear flashes fast. When I have my Headlights on same thing. I noticed that when my fog lights are on that the left fog light also seems brighter than the right. I wasn't sure if the two were connected somehow, but my main concern is getting the blinker to work again. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks!!

You may put the cotton plug in your ear first and then apply the ear drops onto the cotton plug. Keep the plug moist by adding 3 to 5 drops of the medication every 4 to 6 hours or as directed by your doctor.After removing the plug, continue to apply the medication directly into the ear 3 to 4 times daily as directed by your doctor. Lie on your side or tilt the affected ear upward. Hold the dropper directly over the ear, and place the prescribed number of drops into the ear canal. To help the drops roll into the ear of an adult, hold the earlobe up and back. In children, hold the earlobe down and back. Keep the head tilted for about 2 minutes.

David Axelrod: Given the available intelligence at the time, anybody would have said what Susan Rice said days after the attack
**Written by Doug Powers
Appearing on Fox News Sunday, Obama adviser David Axelrod was in his usual non-answer form, but he did say something a bit odd even for him. Moments after claiming that President Obama referred to Benghazi as an "act of terror" from nearly the moment it happened, Axelrod went on to defend others in the administration for claiming four days later and based on the available intelligence that the attack was not premeditated but was instead the result of a spontaneous protest over a video. Axelrod's version implies that Susan Rice (and Jay Carney for that matter) don't consider President Obama's public statements to be a credible source of intelligence.
Axelrod also refused to say if President Obama met with his national security team before heading to Las Vegas for a campaign rally within 24 hours of the attack — so we all know what that non-answer means.

After Anathem, Stephenson Returns to Our Corner of the Multiverse
on May 4, 2014
I am in awe of the tireless, hyper-creative entity that goes by the name 'Neal Stephenson'. The author photo accompanying his works is an obvious fake, and evidence is accumulating that 'he' is in fact a sentient NSA supercomputer designed to write its way past the meta-fictional barriers that divide the physical world and the fictional world. Until proof of this turns up on Wiki-Leaks or something similar, I'll have to seek out whatever clues can be gleaned from 'his' books. I can't think of another writer so freakishly prolific, for one thing. Since 2000 he's written the 2700 page 'Baroque Cycle' (a legitimate masterpiece that reinvents historical fiction); the 1000 page 'Anathem' (an ingenious work of speculative fiction that imagines another universe with many historical parallels to our own, in which huge monasteries, made up of monk-like orders that seal themselves in for decades, centuries, and even millenia, are desperate to avoid the toxic culture and technologies 'extra-muros'... These monks are not religious, however... They are scientists and philosophers, historians dedicated to protecting the ancient knowledge lost to the rest of their world. A visitor from beyond their universe threatens to undo not just their way of life, but their very existence... 'Anathem' is his greatest work to date, and is already a modern classic of both SF and Fantasy); Then we come to Reamde, all 1300 glorious pages of it. Involving a cast of characters too numerous to count, Reamde follows the misadventures of Zula Forthrast after her computer-geek boyfriend Peter sells a flash drive containing illegally obtained credit card information to a man representing an unpredictable Russian mobster named Ivanov. Unfortunately, the drive contains a virus acquired from the online environ of T-rain, a World of Warcraft-type MMORPG created and owned by Zula's very wealthy uncle, Richard Forthrast. When the panicked middleman shows up at Zula's apartment, they discover that the credit card info has been very deeply encrypted. A Troll, living in an isolated region of T-rain and protected by his own army of goblin bandits, is demanding a ransom in virtual gold... gold that has a real world currency exchange rate. From there begins an entirely wild, but somehow credible, course of events - flying to China with Ivanov on a private jet, so as to seek out the Chinese gold-farmer/viral extortionist whose T-rain avatar is the Troll; an insane gunfight between the Russian Mobsters and an Al Qaeda cell of bomb-makers, which initiates an epic battle of wills between the charismatic Islamic terrorist Abdallah Jones (responsible for multiple bombings around the globe) and Sokolov, a Russian Spetsnaz-turned-Security Expert (hired as muscle by Ivanov). From there, things get even messier, as Zula becomes the hostage of Abdallah Jones and his Al Qaeda crew, who proceed to steal the Russians' jet and cleverly chart an undetected course to British Columbia. From there, they plan on using Zula as leverage to convince her uncle Richard, who used to smuggle dope across the border by navigating a cross-country trek, to act as their guide. Various parties make their way to B.C., some of them Intelligence or Military hunting Jones before he launches his attack south of the border, while others are following the trail for their own reasons(such as Sokolov, who respects Zula and is determined to avenge his slain employees by killing Jones; Marlon, the Chinese youth whose alter-ego is the Troll, owes his life to Zula, who purposely sent the Russians to the wrong apartment, the one that just so happened to house the bomb-factory; Csongor, the massive but good-natured Hungarian hacker who Ivanov hired for computer support, has fallen in love with Zula, and will stop at nothing to rescue her; and Yuxia, a brave Chinese local acting as the Russian's guide, is drawn into the mess by chance, but she sticks with Marlon and Csongor in order to aid her new American friend. Stephenson abandons his usual slow. patient start for one of the most exciting books I've read. Given how freakishly prolific he is - writing some 5000 pages for the books mentioned above, as well as a book of essays and short stories, AND another three-volume series called 'The Mongoliad', which he co-wrote with a small group of writer friends - what is perhaps most impressive is his style. He is an excellent writer, avoiding cliches and employing a sharp, drily sardonic wit to each carefully conceived sentence and paragraph. Highly recommended.

Good, but not Stephenson
on September 24, 2011
This is a decent (if long) page-turner, but lacking in both cool uses of advanced tech and Stephenson's usual long diversions on subjects philosophical/technological/etc, and leaving a rather bog-standard story about terrorists that has a surplus of "just so" coincidences and abandoned story subarcs. Not the author's best work.

"When Do the Pirates and Dinosaurs Show Up?"
John M. Ford
on February 22, 2013
Format: Kindle Edition
Zula Forthrast and her boyfriend Peter visit Uncle Richard at his Canadian ski resort. Richard got his start as a small-scale marijuana smuggler slipping along little-known trails between Canada and the U.S. He left the increasing violence of this life for the slightly-less-violent world of online gaming. Before long he founded a company to develop the large-scale online gaming environment of T'Rain. Richard returned to the land of his beloved Canadian trails and bought a big chunk of it to build his resort.
Peter unwisely uses the resort as a hand-off point for a file of stolen credit card numbers. His flash drive introduces the Reamde virus into the other party's computer system. This gets various people... upset. The resulting fuss embroils Russian gangsters, Islamic fundamentalists, government spies, trigger-happy mercenaries, trigger-ecstatic backwoodsmen, and--very occasionally--legitimate law enforcement. Everybody shoots at nearly everybody else. Eventually some team up and others check out. I won't spoil the story with specifics. But even one or two of the characters seem to find all of this action a bit implausible.
Flashbacks provide needed breathing space as we learn more about Richard's history and the intricacies of T'Rain. This is necessary to understand a few plot twists. The Reamde virus, it seems, works by encrypting files on players' hard drives. They can only get the encryption key after paying a ransom in virtual gold at a specific location in T'Rain. Thanks to the challenging features of the game, the large number of ransom-payers, and the finer points of money laundering, this isn't easy. So things get intense online, too.
These parallel plots are well-balanced. Reamde is recommended as a pretty good read.
What Reamde isn't, surprisingly, is science fiction. It is marketed as a techno-thriller, but I'll confess to having missed this. While reading I had believed that the "goldmining" and other economic transactions in T'Rain were clever extrapolations. When I mentioned them to my World of Warcraft-playing son, he set me straight. At least the deals he's been in were for smaller amounts. So far.

Chain Reaction
on June 30, 2012
Format: Hardcover
Neal Stephenson's "Readme" was published on September 20th, 2011. I don't know if it was intentional to publish it in anniversary month of 911, but given the international terrorism element of the story it is somehow fitting. "Readme" is a large book, with a story which arcs from a computer virus which extorts gold in a computer game (which can be turned into money in the real world) to the Russia Mafia, to international terrorism, but the core of it all is the relationship between Richard Forthrast and his adopted niece Zula.
Given that the title of the book refers to a computer virus, one would expect that the virus and the game that it involves would play a more central role to the story than it actually does. Not to say that the Reamde virus isn't important to the story, quite the contrary, it is the virus which sets off the entire chain of events. Stephenson clearly spent a lot of time coming up with the concept of the virus, and the computer game it uses to extort funds from those infected, and the early part of the book incorporates the discussion of the game, and its underlying premise. The strategy behind the development of the game is told in some detail, and is important to the character development of Richard.
The virus works by encrypting the user's data, and informing the user that to release the data they must deliver a certain amount of gold (in the computer game) to a specific location. Where it goes wrong is when Zula's boyfriend has promised some data to a buyer, but then cannot deliver because his data stick has become encrypted by the virus. It then turns out that the person interested in the data is a member of the Russian mafia, which results in an attempt to find the programmer who created the virus. The story then heads to Xiamen, China to bring in the hackers, but as they attempt to capture the hackers, Zula's attempt to warn them results in the involvement of some Islamic terrorists, who just happen to be in the same building. The chain reaction doesn't stop there though, as the terrorists, led by Abdullah Jones, a black Welshmen who also is being tracked by MI6, manage to take Zula as a hostage.
The Islamic terrorism plot dominates the story the rest of the way, and of course it all comes back to an attempt by the terrorists to get back into the U.S. from Canada by using Zula's rich uncle. In my opinion, this is unfortunate, because the terrorism plot was the least interesting to me, and outside of the Abdullah Jones character I found it to be rather cliché. Most, if not all, of the terrorists are two-dimensional characterizations, while the characters in China, and those associated with the Russian Mafia were much more interesting, as was the concept of the game and the virus.
The end result is that this is a solid book, and it will keep the reader entertained, but my personal rating can't go above three stars. Even Stephenson's books which are not at his peak are well worth reading, and this one is no exception. There are many great characters in this book, though I thought that it was a bit unrealistic how much everyone (except for the two-dimensional stereotypical terrorist characters) were so entranced by Zula to be a bit over the top. Because I wasn't that interested in another "terrorist" story, I thought that the story dragged for a substantial section, but for those who want that type of story it may not be an issue.

I'm a Stephenson groupnik. I own all the books he has written, save one. If I get started on the Baroque Trilogy or on Anathem or on Zodiac, it's difficult to stop me. To the point that my family religiously avoids to bring me in "started" mode relative to these.
But I don't get Reamde. Attention, mild spoilers follow.
The catchiness stops at the title misspelling (complete with the geek culture reference). The rest is just some book. I realize I might be overly harsh, because I hoped for a story and levels of creative imagination made almost a requirement by the other Stephenson books. But this is how I think now (two months after finishing reading). I promise that, while reading the book, my opinion was even harsher.
There is almost no scientific fiction. There is perhaps some fiction, but of the kind that, if it didn't dully happen already in the real world, one wonders why. If this book was published 20 years ago, it would have been a hit. Character descriptions are still Stephenson'esquely sharp and powerful. The "adventure" ingredients are spicy and rushy enough. This is the creation of a very talented and very experienced writer, after all. But there was something lacking all the way through. Once you finish it, you just get to stand there, scratching head. If at least the ending was not so melodramatically holywoodian.
It is my first rewiew with such a tone and I'm not happy about it.

A disappointment from a favourite author
on November 14, 2014
Format: Kindle Edition
I've long been a fan of Neal Stephenson, so it pains me more than a little bit to have to be so negative regarding his latest offering, Reamde.
Reamde is a misspelling of "readme," the name of that catch-all text file that accompanies almost anything you download from the 'net. Stephenson likes these little insider jokes, as anyone who's read much of his work knows. This time, unfortunately, the title isn't the only wrong word in Stephenson's tedious and overlong opus. There are hundreds of pages of "wrong" words, if wrong means needless, self-indulgent, or over-detailed.
Now, I'm not always so intolerant of Stephenson's infatuation with extraordinary length. After all, I loved all 981 pages of Anathem (reviewed on this blog), and most of the 1,152 pages of Cryptonomicon. And I read all eight volumes, and the more than 3,000 pages, in the trilogy "The Baroque Cycle." (The fact that this trilogy has eight volumes tells you a lot about the author's excesses.)
I liked the "Cycle" as a group, but there were those unfortunate middle 1,000 pages, an endless pirate saga that would have made a good 250-page novel. And that's pretty much the problem with Reamde. It's a good 250-page novel that's 750 pages too long.
The MMORG ("massively-multiplayer online role-playing game," for the uninitiated) and hacker stuff is well done, if pretty standard by now, but the endlessly protracted terrorists vs. spies storyline that spins off from it gets bogged down in interminable detail. Stephenson is well known for indulging his penchant for minutiae — he famously devoted several pages in one of his early novels to the delicate art of mixing milk and cereal in just the right way — but here he outdoes even himself.
I suppose that he was just having fun, but when Stephenson's deus ex machina solution to the imminent murder of a major character relies on the timely intercession of a man-eating cougar (the real, feline kind), I almost stopped reading right then. But what are you to do? After you've read 700 pages, to stop with only 300 to go would render all those hours of reading not only pointless but fruitless. Long books trap you that way.
I'm not saying that Stephenson has suddenly become a bad writer. Not at all! He writes with crisp clarity, and taken in isolation many of his detailed episodes are entertaining, often with a touch of irony or celebratory nerdishness. But when you add all of these set pieces together, the result is not so effective, and not so entertaining.
And, when you get to the end, you're treated to an endless, live ammo version of a(n) MMORG, one that goes on and on and on and ….
I get it that Stephenson is playing a clever game here, having his "real" characters act out the kind of action at which their online avatars excel. But do we really need dozens of pages of detail on each player's equipment and firepower? A few pages on how best to pour milk over cereal is fun; a few hundred pages of chasing each other through the woods is just self-indulgent. I got bored, something that a good writer should really try to avoid whenever possible.
Reamde bears comparison to the superficially-similar but much better novel HaltinG StatE, by Charles Stross. William Gibson calls Stross's book "keenly observant of our emergent society." Gibson knows what he's talking about. Stross's novel also revolves around a sinister computer hack, and it also features techno-savvy spies as major characters. It, too, is entertaining, often with a touch of irony or celebratory nedishness. But the best thing that it has going for it, in comparison to Reamde, is that Stross accomplishes his tale in 350 pages. That's plenty. It works. There's no feeling that the story is rushed. Characters are adequately motivated and filled out. The author's concerns with the effect of technology on near-future society are clearly visible. Yet after we've finished Stross's book, we have many extra hours of free time that we don't have available while we finish reading the bloated pages of Reamde.
Sadly, my final advice about Reamde is this: Unless you're a Stephenson diehard, "Dot'n."

Disappointing after the Baroque Cycle , Anathem and Cryptonimicon . Visually I thought he had a movie in mind or worse a tv series . Yes I kept reading , but found it tiresome and even predictable , even down to the happy ending , except for Uncle John . Pynchon did the same with Vineland so he's in good company ; will definitely look for a return to his earlier form with his next effort .

The different meanings of the term 'ouranos' and the importance of aether in Aristotle's works on the heavens and on the cosmos
Abstract:Aristotle in his work On the Heavens gives the three meanings of the term 'ouranos'. According to the great philosopher, ouranos is, firstly, the outer sphere in his geocentric model, secondly, the body that occupies the next place to the outermost circumference of the world and thirdly, the Universe as a whole.
The whole of the heavens, the whole cosmos, is spherical and moves continuously, and Aristotle (On the Cosmos B, 391b, p. 10) uses the term cosmos as a synonym for ouranos. This sense is quite common from Plato onwards.
Additionally, we describe the meaning of the term 'aether', since 'aether', the fifth element (quintessence), is very important now in cosmological research.
Keywords: Aether; Aristotle; Cosmology; Ouranos; Quintessence

I have a given list, e.g.
[2, 3, 5, 587] and I want to have a complete list of the combination. So want something like
[2, 2*3,2*5, 2*587, 3, 3*5, 3*587, 5, 5*587, 587]. Since I am on beginner level with Haskell I am curious how a list manipulation would look like.
Additionally I am curious if the computation of the base list might be expensive how would this influence the costs of the function? (If I would assume the list has limit values, i.e < 20)
Rem.: The order of the list could be done afterwards, but I have really no clue if this is cheaper within the function or afterwards.
